Unsolicited

My mom, who will be visiting in a week or so, called me today. When I answered the phone she said, "I'm about to go in the package (liquor) store. Do you need anything besides Tanqueray?"

I would simply like to point out that I have the kind of mom who A) calls me from the package store to see if I need anything and B) views my need for Tanqueray as a given.

No you can't have her!

I'm so jealous.

My mom called me because my sister was going to be visiting her, and she wanted to know what kind of beer to have on hand for my sister. I said "I dunno Mom, maybe just something that's decent. She drinks a lot of different imported beer."

My mom: "Oh. Like Michelob?"

Hmmm. Gin.

What the hell is this package store business? I have never heard that terminology before.

On military bases you buy liquor at what they call the package store. I'm not sure WHY they call it that -- perhaps because good things come in small packages?
